Focusing on the intersection of Heidegger's philosophy and psychiatry, this book critically examines mental disorder through an existential lens. It revises Heidegger's thought in light of psychopathological phenomena, revealing both strengths and weaknesses. The author explores Heidegger's influence on Swiss phenomenological psychiatry and contrasts his ideas with those of Foucault, Deleuze, and Guattari. This interdisciplinary work aims to deepen the understanding of human existence and mental illness, making it essential for scholars in philosophy and the philosophy of psychiatry.
